I did another flight approaching into VOHS runway 27L (This time the minimum FAF was set to 3500 for VOHS). Again the descent was late towards the end. I was told to expect vectors to rwy 27L when I was downwind (STAR takes you downwind) & asked to descend to 5500 when I was still quite high. I ...

Ok. I think I made an error with respect to setting the FAF for VOHS. I had set it for 5000 (its 4600 at 10NM according to charts) which seems a bit high. Since the FAF distance is set to 8NM in PF3 config & according to charts, at 8NM, I should be at 3600ft, I will set the FAF to 3500ft (any re...

I did a flight between VABB & VOHS & encountered couple of issues (sim version: FS2004): 1. At VABB, I was never asked to switch to tower frequency automatically as I approached holding point for runway 27. I had to manually switch over to tower to request takeoff clearance. Another issue I ...

An update - so I took Dan's advice & added CLIPY as well to the flightplan (approx 20NM from EGGW & part of ASKE2H STAR) and indicated HON as start of STAR. This time around, PF3 provided vectors correctly to rwy 26. Henceforth, I will try adding waypoints post start of STAR. I will report b...

Hi, I did a short flight between EGCC & EGGW. The flightplan was EGCC LISTO2R LISTO HON ASKEY2H EGGW (this was the flightplan entered in FMS). Cruise altitude was 13,000ft & aircraft was ATR 72-500. I also used FS Global real weather. In PF3, I loaded the flightplan as: EGCC LISTO HON EGGW w...
